Beliefs

Early Restorationists believed that the Christian church had gradually deteriorated from the ideal state of the original apostolic faith. The term "Restorationist" refers to the commitment to restore the church to its original, or primitive, form.

Generally Disciples do not engage in speculative theology, including speculation about the Trinity or the ultimate nature of a triune God. Creeds and doctrines are seen as divisive, especially when used as tests of faith.
